I would give him some credit for operation Warp Speed, except for two things:
The only part of the accelerated vaccine development that was actually supposed to be handled by the Trump was the distribution of vaccines. And as we know from the Biden administration, even when Trump was kicked out of office, they still didn’t even have a PLAN for vaccine distributions!
Trump undercut the entire vaccine effort by failing to promote the vaccine when it was done, and generally treating all of COVID-19 as a hoax. We could not achieve herd immunity because the MAGA base would not vaccine. Hundreds of thousands of deaths occurred as a direct result of Trump sending mixed messages about the vaccine, and legitimizing the notion that covid was a partisan issue.
